WBEZ brings you fact-based news and information. Sign up for our newsletters to stay up to date on the stories that matter.

Once again, y’all, we have made it to Friday. Congratulations.

This week we are joined by Lucas Silveira, musician and host of “Shine True,” as well as Tre’vell Anderson, journalist and co-host of the podcast FANTI. We discuss the Mars helicopter, comedians who are swole, and of course the Chauvin verdict.

Plus, Roxana Jullapat joins to talk about her highly anticipated cookbook “Mother Grains,” which is all about the wonderful world of WHOLE GRAINS!

And because we’ve all been thinking about (dreading?) it, we check in with entomologist Sammy Ramsey, aka Dr. Buggs, about the upcoming Cicada emergence.
